I'm not getting anything I've got in Classics, except the Megatron tempts me. Might spring for him if I ever see one at a good price (or have the money on hand).
Powerglide I'm going with the Henkei version, to me the character was always a red jet so it's a nostalgia thing, and also in robot mode on the Hasbro one the big white robot with a red head just looks off. Takara's seems to blend so much better.

At the moment I'm only planning to get Starscream, Skywarp & Thundercracker, and any other Seekers they put out. Got to keep up the complete collection.

I'm getting them because it's actually a lot cheaper for me to import Henkei then it is to go and buy Universe from a shop here.

I can get Henkei deluxes for about $17 each (compared to the $25+ Universe costs in stores) and Ultras for about $35 (compared to the $50+ they will cost in stores).


Wanted To Buy: Sealed Actionmasters

I'm going to be a near-completist with this line. Already have Prime, Megatron, Astrotrain and Starscream, with Bumblebee on his way. Hot Rodimus is likely next.

I passed on Astrotrain, Bumblebee, Megatron, and Optimus Prime originally so I'll be picking those up. I have Thundercracker pre-ordered I'm probably selling my Starscream and Skywarp to pick up the Henkei versions. So far I'm content with the US classics versions of the rest. Though come to think of it I have Powerglide pre-ordered too.

The only henkai I would see a reason to get would be Thundercracker. For the figures that both lines offer, the differences in paint are not worth the increased. IMO, of course.

Got all Classics line before, but is having a friend pick up the Destrons Henkei for me. He is suggesting that I should go for the Cybertrons too, but still debating. Quality he says is tons better in Henkei from the ones that he has right now.
